Love After Holidays

Ma'am, are you hurt?

I'm fine.

Sky, Sky!

Sky baby, are you okay?

Yes, Mommy.

My head just hurts.

Come here and give me your hand.

I'm here, okay?

We're gonna be okay.

All right, all right.

We're gonna get you outta here, all right?

We're gonna get you and your mother out of here.

- Ma'am. - Sir, you can't

- go over here. - That's my family

- in that car. - I know,

but you can't go over there.

Please, can you tell me something?

- Are they okay? - There's been an accident.

We're trying to assess their, their condition now.

Just give us a minute.

Sky, baby.

Sky, are you okay?

- Daddy's here. - Try to calm down.

I know you're concerned.

Try to calm down.

- Ma'am, tell me something. - Let us just,

let us do our investigation

and you can go over there shortly.

Ma'am, were you drinking?

Step out the car.

Step out the vehicle.

Why?

I didn't even do anything, sir.

Step outta the vehicle, ma'am.

Stand right here, please.

Janeen, don't tell me you were drinking

and driving with Sky in the car.

Stand over here.

I cannot believe you.

Follow my finger.

Don't move your head.

This is unacceptable.

You need help.

And until you get help,

you will not see Sky without my supervision.

What, what does that mean?

What are you about to do?

- You wanna go see your dad? - What's he doing?

That's the father of your child, correct?

What?

No, sorry.

No, that's my daughter.

Stephan, wait, no, no!

- Sky that's my daughter too. - No, no, no.

- Wait. - No.

Stephan, what you doing?

- No. - Ma'am.

That's my daughter.

Stay still.

Stephan, please.

I'm gonna pat you down.

Do you have anything that I should know about?

No, no.

Please.

Please, ma'am, please.

Stephan, I'm just saying no.

You know, whatever you're staring at,

it's not gonna make your problems go away

unless you face them head on.

Seriously?

Relax, just a little sip.

Not even drunk.

You know what I'd appreciate?

If you're gonna come here, don't ever bring that again.

If you're serious.

Happy?

You know, you don't have to let this accident

destroy your entire life.

I just want my daughter back.

That's the only reason why we're doing this,

is because of my stupid ex-husband

why I'm even in here.

Hmm?

So is he the only person you're gonna refer to?

What's referring to?

He ruined my life.

I worked hard to get to where I'm at.

He's trying to ruin that.

Hmm.

This will be the first holiday without my child,

the first holiday without my child.

Do you know why you're here?

Because this one stupid accident,

he continues to punish me.

That's the only reason.

That's the reason why you got divorced.

Is that the reason why you don't get

to spend time with your daughter?

My God.

- Morning, Shanice. - Morning, Ms. Lawrence.

We're a bit behind, but I have everything prepped for you.

Is Minerva here?

Yes.

Did you get much sleep?

Yes, yes.

Uh, notes, notes, notes.

Yes, here.

Okay, just a quick reminder that we have

that big special interview coming up in two weeks.

Going to be a major boost for the networks.

They created a huge marketing budget for this,

so there's a lot riding on it.

Are we done?

Yes, I will let Taylor know

you're ready for hair and makeup.

Hair and makeup, gotcha, gotcha.

Welcome to "Love After".

- I'm Janeen. - Hey, Janeen.

- Yeah. - Need you miced up

- in 20 minutes. - Okay.

Perfect, perfect, perfect.

I'm fine, Morris.

It's just one of those days.

Remember, you're the face of this show.

Own it.

Thanks.

I appreciate it.

Yes, I'm the face.

All right, let's go, people.

Places everyone.

We got a show put on.

Okay, everything's looking good back here.

All right, let's clear the stage.

Okay, stage is clear.

Lacey, Lacey, let's get the talent on stage.

- You can. - Look alive, everybody.

All right, somebody cue the music.

And let's go in three, two, one.

Welcome, welcome to "Love After".

I'm your host, Janeen Lawrence,

and I'm here to help reach, teach,

restore, and inspire.

This is our how you lovin' segment.

And your love guru is here

to help you find the solution you need to level up.

Now, we have selected two lucky members from our audience

for our how you lovin' segment.

So let's get started.

Hey, queen, state your name and where you're from.

Hey, Janeen.

- My name is Belinda. - Hey.

Hey.

And I'm from Dallas.

So I finally started dating again

after a big bad back breakup

- about a, about a year ago. - Okay.

And it's just been so nerve-wracking,

just trying to get back out there.

I don't wanna ask the wrong questions

and I don't wanna say too much too soon.

- Mm. - So it's.

Okay, okay,

Well, Belinda, first of all,

it's just natural dating jitters, right?

- Have a natural conversation. - She looks good.

Excellent, excellent eye contact.

And most importantly, have fun.

Have fun, girl.

And remember, let me hear it.

Not every connection is a...

Romantic connection.

Yes, girl, have fun.

Let your hair down.

And you're beautiful.

- Okay. - Thank you, queen.

Okay, introduce yourself.

Hi, I'm Carolyn.

- I'm from Philly. - Hello.

Hi.

And I just was wondering, how are you holding up?

I mean, with your ex-husband divorcing you

and airing out all your dirty laundry.

I mean, it's not really a good look, Janeen.

What the hells going on here?

Well, I don't know.

What, what's she doing?

What is she saying?

Excuse me.

You heard me.

I mean, you get on television

and you preach to all of us like your life is so perfect,

but we all know honey, that's a front.

You need to fix your life.

Okay, what is your question?

Who is your husband banging?

Janeen, don't answer that.

No, it's fine.

- I'll answer. - Yeah, let her answer.

- Carolyn. - Jean, what are you doing?
